The Feast: Social Innovation Conference

On October 16 at Scandinavia House, a couple of Idealist staff members will be joining a one-day conference put on by All Day Buffet. Called The Feast, it will “gather 150 of the world’s leading creative mavericks, entrepreneurs, revolutionaries, radicals, and innovators together to inspire action to change the world.” There are still some spots left, so register now!

There’s quite an array of speakers lined up for the day. One is “eco-model” Summer Rayne Oakes, an entomologist and environmental scientist who advocates for sustainability through fashion and the mainstream media. Another speaker will be Dale Jones, the CEO of PlayPumps International, which provides clean water to sub-Saharan Africa through a system that allows children to play on a merry-go-round at the same time that they are pumping clean water for their community.

We hope to see more smart, creative, entrepreneurial spirits (like you?) there!
